These kind of polls are done all the time, but they're always entertaining. The Washington Times reports that pollster John Zogby has found that 77 percent of Americans can identify two of the Seven Dwarfs, but only 24 percent can name two Supreme Court justices. Clarence Thomas was the most oft-cited justice, followed by Antonin Scalia. Sleepy was the most frequently named Dwarf, followed by Dopey, Grumpy and Sneezy.

 

Tom Shoop is vice president and editor in chief at Government Executive Media Group, where he oversees both print and online editorial operations. He started as associate editor of Government Executive magazine in 1989; launched the company’s flagship website, GovExec.com, in 1996; and was named editor in chief in 2007.
